The Horsehead , The Flame and Alnitak - HaO3RGB JanFeb2020
MarsG76 posted a gallery image in Member's Album
From the album: Deep Sky Imaging
I managed to get some time to process another of my images exposed in January/February 2020. This was the last image when my USB port on my Astro40D failed. This happened while imaging this scene but it happened toward the end of the imaging plan so I got almost the subs that I wanted. The total exposure time was 16 hours and 16 minutes in ISO1600 for all of the subs, RGB, (OSC through the UV/IR Cut filter), HAlpha and OIII. Imaged through my 8" SCT at f6.3, 1280mm FL.© Mariusz Goralski

The Orion constellation taken 14.01.16 using Canon 100D on Skywatcher Star Adventurer. A reworking of my original image using Gimp. Bringing out the detail and colours of the nebula has unfortunately also brightened the LP to the lower half of the image. You can clearly see M42 The Orion Nebula within "the sword", and there is The Flame Nebula and The Horsehead Nebula around the bottom left star of "the belt". You can also see an element of Barnard's Loop which is the red band that curves around the left hand side of the image.© Vicky050373

Taken using Canon 100D on Skywatcher Star Adventurer - 55mm lens - single 4 minute exposure at ISO 800 You can clearly see M42 The Orion Nebula within "the sword", and there is a hint of The Flame Nebula and The Horsehead Nebula around the bottom left star of "the belt" Taken during a trip out to The Dales on Thursday night at a nice dark site between Kettlewell and Hawes© Vicky050373

This has been imaged through the NexStar 8SE on the CGEM mount. This was imaged in the native 2032mm focal length (F10) through a Baader UV/IR Cut and Halpha 7nm filters and recorded by my modded Canon 40D DSLR. I experimented with trying to capture some UV data through the Astrodon UV filter but it was a failure on the horsehead... I talked about it in another post, but I think that stacking the UV data into the rest pulled the stars back to white from the redness caused by the HAlpha data. I used PHD 2.6.4 to Autoguide for the first time and I have to say that I like PHD 2 a lot, h© Mariusz Goralski

This is a cropped image of the other Horsehead image which I imaged through the NexStar 8SE on the CGEM mount in the native 2032mm focal length and recorded by my modded Canon 40D DSLR. Total data amount was 75 used in this image... HII: 29 x 15 minute ISO1600 RGB: 13 x 10 minute and 25 x 5 minute ISO800 UV: 8 x 20 minute ISO3200 So total time spent on integration was 850 minutes© Mariusz Goralski

Taken with my iOptron Skytracker and Canon 70d with 300mm lens. Wish I'd stayed out longer as the Horsehead was just starting to show! 25 x 1 min exposures at ISO 6400.-

Horsehead nebula using 35nm Baader Ha filter and lodestar at 60s exposure -
Tried capturing M42 and horsehead nebula last night with my new Astro-modified EOS Rebel XT. During post processing I noticed these weird spots and lines across the image. Would you happen to know if this was because of the mirrors of the telescope (i.e. dirty mirrors) or is something wrong with the camera? What's weird is that this 2 images were taken with the same exact camera at the same exact position but some artifacts visible on M42 did not show up on the horsehead nebula. Btw I checked the mirrors of the telescope but I cant find the weird long spots

This is the Ha (15x 30 mins with the Chroma 3nm) to go with the LRGB data I used here: I haven't managed to satisfactorily incorporate it yet, I think because it's a lot stronger than the RGB and it reddens the image too much (and overwhelms a lot of the brown dust which I want to preserve). Ideally I'd increase the amount of LRGB data substantially to help with this but it's too late for that now this year; guess I'll have to work on my processing skills a bit more. Will also try to rework the stars in (L)RGB to tame them somewhat. Paul

Field around the Horsehead Nebula bordering up to the edge of M42. I wanted to try to bring out some dust below the Ha region but ran out of time to deal better with the crazier stars. First time I've processed the Horsehead without any Ha data added (will have a go now I've done the LRGB only version for this competition). L 42x5min, R 16x5min, G 16x5min, B 25x5min, taken in December 2017 and January/February 2018 with a Takahashi E-130D on Avalon Linear mount with Moravian G3-16200 mono CCD. Processed in Pixinisght. Hope you enjoy! Paul

Hello Again, I wanted to image the Horsehead nebula close up for a while and finally had the chance to do it, as well as process the data I captured across multiple nights. This has been imaged through the NexStar 8SE on the CGEM mount. This was imaged in the native 2032mm focal length (F10) through a Baader UV/IR Cut and Halpha 7nm filters and recorded by my modded Canon 40D DSLR. I experimented with trying to capture some UV data through the Astrodon UV filter but it was a failure on the horsehead...

Seasons greetings, all! HiloDon and I are at it again with another seasonal delight for our friends here at SGL! HiloDon provided the stellar images and I created the musical landscape and produced the video. There's a little surprise near the end! Hope you enjoy! For all who observe, have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Reggie

My first reasonably successful attempt at capturing the Horsehead Nebula, a target I've been desperate to image since I started doing astrophotography. Previous efforts yielded nothing at all and I was resigned to thinking it could only be captured with Hydrogen alpha filters and seriously long exposures. However on my last couple of nights in Sicily I had another go and started to see some promising results. At first the subs were marred by some sort of lens flare but on the very last night I managed to get good data and reasonably good guiding so I was able to get an hour of exposure time fr

I don't seem to get to do many imaging projects for myself these days. This year in particular seems to have been particularly lacking in clear dark nights, I don't know if you would agree? Complicating matters further in my locale has been a huge and long lasting A45 bypass, three years and still not quite finished. The site has been working 24/7, and they put perimeter lights all around the temporary site office complex. At the same time my kind neighbour (who knows what I do for a hobby and for pocket money) decided to install the brightest floodlight I have ever seen, and leave it on- 15 replies

I am looking for some tips on imaging the Horsehead Nebula in Orion. Whilst this is one of the brighter targets I am very aware of the issues with over exposing Altinak. In addition as Orion passes by my house it goes behind my neighbour’s house so I only have a few hours to capture data, so this will have to be a multi-night job. I am also steadily running out of days before this becomes impossible… My plan is to capture LRGB data: RGB each with 5 min exposures then the luminance at 5mins exposures, obviously the more subs the better. I will also look at capturing LRGB

Hello all I just had 2 sessions where I tried the horse head Nebula and also the Iris Nebula. I think the Iris needed longer exposures to get the darker detail but I'm not guiding. Let me know your thoughts. I was a little dissatisfied with Iris http://www.astrobin.com/full/274255/D/ http://www.astrobin.com/full/278508/0/ Cheers Gerry

Yet another Horsehead (sorry). Imaged on the 20th using my ED120 and Modded 1200d with UHC-E Astronomik filter - 27 subs of 300 secs at 800 iso. Stacked with Bias and flats. Dithered so darks not added. Tried adding darks but it got noisey. Comments and suggestions welcomed as usual and thanks for looking. Peter

Hi! I've recently acquired a new Astromodified Canon rebel XT and I've tried to take pictures of nebulas using it but I've noticed that there are these weird black artifacts that keep appearing in my images. Would like to know if anyone has experienced this before? Or are these dirt/dust specs on the camera, filter, and telescope glass? I've attached some of my edited and raw pictures for your reference. The black artifacts can already be seen in the raw image of the horsehead nebula and after stacking I think it got amplified. Anyway, advance thanks and I hope everyone's doing well.

Depending on your point of view this was either a late night or an early morning stargazing trip. After a few hours of sleep my alarm woke me at 12:30am and I headed to the listed Bortle 1 skies just south of Tonopah, Nv, USA (map). When I went to bed the conditions were iffy due to a weather system that was pushing through - but when I woke up the satellite showed clear-enough conditions to warrant getting dressed and giving it a go. I arrived at my desired location and proceeded to setup the scope. The challenge of the night was going to be the temperature which was hovering around 9F (-

On reflection trying to nail the tricky horsehead nebula visually last night might have been a tad ambitious. At the start of the night the moon was pretty high and even though it was no where near full it was surprisingly bright. Add to that how wet it was last night in the air (hair dryers at the ready chaps) and the mist that was forming in pockets on the lower ground around us, you could conclude that the conditions were not ideal. However Alan (Rustysplit) & I were determined to try....... Armed with Alan's home made 14" dob and my 16" Lightbridge, under my rural Sussex (pretty) dark
